@badp Yea, I'm just going to exclude said file. because fuck it.

badp

@Arperum I think you're better off making a new local, uh, checkout (?) of the repository

Unionhawk

Oh, wait, they're doing issue 2 in a manner similar to the casino deal

Hmm

badp

then using that one instead to do your commit

Private Pansy

badp

@PrivatePansy ZOMG WEBS

Arperum

3:02 PM

@badp Ya well, too late. It worked if I excluded that file.

Private Pansy

@badp Introducing logic to the Internet is probably a bad idea, I'll admit

Arperum

And the file isn't all that important, so I don't care.

badp

@PrivatePansy are you actually doing string parsing on those formulas?

Private Pansy

@badp Yes

StrixVaria

@PrivatePansy The "implies" operator was always awkward.

badp

3:02 PM

@PrivatePansy that sounds potentially useful.

Private Pansy

I know! I made something useful! Ha!

I surprise myself sometimes

badp

Don't let it get to your head

@StrixVaria Still better than the unary > operator

Private Pansy

Oh hmmmm. Someone from Stanford already made one. And it's a lot better than mine.

Unionhawk

So we're learning Go in my CPS class and so far it's fantastic

It feels like C and Python had a baby, or something

Private Pansy

Huh. The code is parsing the logic statement into an AST

Unionhawk

3:11 PM

And that baby was strict about unused variable rules etc

(variable defined but not used is a compile error, as is package imported but not used and I think unreachable code)

Private Pansy

It's a lot more rigorous than the way I'm parsing the string, which is pretty ad-hoc

fredley

@badp ermahgerd, werbs

murgatroid99

@Unionhawk The first and last of those can also be errors in C, depending on your compiler flags

Unionhawk

I see

@Unionhawk Too bad it rejects any program longer than 100 lines

I think it is as this point that I should probably concede defeat

Q: Is it still possible to install Minecraft 2.0 using the 1.6 launcher?

A long while ago, Mojang had released a fake Minecraft version for April Fools called Minecraft 2.0 which had many amusing features added to it. During that time, Minecraft still used the old launcher system. Now, though, with the post-1.6 launcher being used, the process to install it is differ...

@PrivatePansy I remember doing that.

It wasn't so bad, tbh.

Unionhawk

I mean, it is pretty common, apparently, my professor did our current assignment (recreate the diff utility) in like 80 lines or something

Private Pansy

3:16 PM

He's using an AST, which I should've considered in the first place

Silly @badp that's not even a legal move

no

unless the white is moving into that move, and the black is saying checkmate to indicate it's illegal

CHECKMATE @badp

badp

why do you think @GraceNote posted it in the first place? CHECKMATE, ATHEISTS

Unionhawk

3:20 PM

OH SHIT

djsmiley2k

I'm still confused

Unionhawk

Maybe @badp posted that to confuse you!

badp

maximum overcheckmate

your mate got so checked, dude.

Yuuki

@djsmiley2k Black cannot say "checkmate" while white is moving.

two bugs

Checkmate sounds like some kind of gay bro term

Hey man... checkmate motions at dude Yeah bro!

djsmiley2k

3:22 PM

@Yuuki hmmm

Yuuki

You can only declare "checkmate" on your own move, not your opponent's.

djsmiley2k

hmmm

dumb opponent then

Yuuki

You can indicate that the move would place them in check, thus being illegal, but you cannot declare checkmate when it's not your move.

blart memes

hei gois

Yuuki

Really, indicating an illegal move (moving into check) is pretty much the only thing you're allowed to do when it's not your turn.

badp

@Yuuki what about warning your opponent that his hair is being crawled by spiders that are on fire?

two bugs

And logically, you can't move into a checkmate.

Yuuki

@badp Nope, can't do anything.

blart memes

3:28 PM

@badp But, that's not even relating to the actual game.

Yuuki

Unless he tries to move into check.

blart memes

It stands to reason that you'd be able to do that, right?

Yuuki

Then, you can be all, "you're moving into check and by the way, pyromaniac spiders are in your hair".

blart memes

Warn them about fiery spiders crawling on their head?

Yuuki

But he's SOL if he's not moving into check.

blart memes

3:29 PM

@Yuuki Ah.

badp

Poor Blanc

Yuuki

And really, it's on him that he didn't notice those spiders.

Not your fault.

two bugs

Honestly, when he goes to take care of the spiders you should leave his clock running.

Yuuki

Sounds about right.

two bugs

I mean, sorry about the spiders and all, but you should have taken care of that before the match.

Chess is brutal

Why do you think the Russians are so good at it?

Unionhawk

So, instead of dealing with vim, I think I'm going to use FTP and notepad++ as my primary development environment this semester, or something

badp

or you've been turned into brutal people by DOTA style games

Yuuki

4D chess isn't so bad until someone constructs the time machine. Sending your king 50 turns into the future is a risky move, but it's kinda OP if you have any sense of time management.

Unionhawk

I do not know who thought it would be a good idea to forego the "end" key on this laptop keyboard though

badp

3:34 PM

Apple

Unionhawk

Nope

Well maybe

But this is an Asus

badp

I wonder if that would be $ in Vim

Kevin van der Velden

@Unionhawk I have yet to find a superiour text editor, maybe a better IDE

Unionhawk

@KevinvanderVelden Fair enough

Kevin van der Velden

@badp $ does indeed function the same as end

badp

3:34 PM

@Unionhawk if Apple keyboards had an End button it'd move you to the end of the file. Fun fact!

I suppose it's instead something like Fn-Right

Kevin van der Velden

That's what gg is for in vim, you can just say good game! And go to the end of the file

blart memes

> tfw you see everyone dedicatedly developing and all you're doing is screwing around in BF

badp

and if you want to move to the end of the line it's that End key/chord and a modifier

Good luck guessing which

Is it ctrl command alt shift apple or whargarbl? None knows

3:37 PM

@Unionhawk Sometimes when you click it, the usual Captcha thing comes up.

badp

@Unionhawk AFAIK it tracks your mouse movement and timing

blart memes

But that hasn't been the case for me in a long while.

badp

If that looks suspicious in the least you get the good old captcha challenge

djsmiley2k

@Unionhawk yeah it's looking at many things, how the page loads, if you're ignoring certain parts, if you've reacted to something a human wouldn't, etc.

blart memes

Also, that one flag I submitted yesterday among the many I submitted then is still pending.

badp

then sublime notices and turns indexing off

@badp So I'd need to do that manually probably or something?

user15026

@TimStone I am imagining what it could be for and it isn't anything fun

@blartmemes we'll get to it.

@AshleyNunn I do trust.

user15026

@yuuki so you couldn't hide anything? Like bugging the table or something.

Unionhawk

@Yuuki Because it's something out of a spy movie

Tim Stone

@Yuuki So there's absolutely no where to hide anything

user15026

That's my random guess.

Tim Stone

3:47 PM

@AshleyNunn Yeah, that

Yuuki

@AshleyNunn Ah, that makes sense.

badp

@Unionhawk probably just set up some sort of folder sync yes. Maybe git?

I mean you probably want to version it anyway

TIL I will become a ghost when I die.

Maybe, eventually it needs to all go in a particular folder on the server

FAO Schwartz is probably where the first NES was sold in North America, but apparently nobody really knows for 100% sure

Just like the exact release date of Super Mario Bros 1

@Yuuki you're already as good as a ghost to be honest

blart memes

I have a confession to make.

I have never heard of FAO Schwarz until now.

two bugs

Oh, there's no T? I always heard it as FAO Schwartz.

Yuuki

I wouldn't expect you to? It was a brick-and-mortar toy retail store and the present is an era of online shopping.

I'm annoyed that Crimbo is becoming more and more relevant to ascension running.

It used to be a fun event where you got shitty pieces of equipment because that was funny.

And possibly a metaphor for terrible Christmas presents.
